Hello. Thank you for your reply.
I have many applications using a db to manage access and profiles.
Now I have to use even other application supporting ldap.
So I’m hoping to use same db, so I can manage only a datasource for all
Applications (same users!!!)
But I need to use memberOf to manage the access to theese applications
(profiling).
(Excuse me for My English!)
Thanks,
Arianna

The MySQL backend is experimental and generally unsupported. It should
not
be used as a general purpose backend for an LDAP server.

Is there a particular reason you're trying to wedge memberof support into
mysql, which is likely not designed to handle it?

You can simply keep the SQL DB and OpenLDAP DB in sync with a custom
script. It's probably less work implementing it than dealing with all
the issues you will have using back-sql with various overlays (e.g.
slapo-memberof).
Ciao, Michael.

Hello!
You're right, but already that database is populated by various scripts. I
don't want to add sync scripts yet.
Since I see memberOf in LDAP view, I thought the search was working too. :(
Nobody was able to use group research?
I miss only this last step and then everything should be ok.
Thanks,
Arianna

I will reiterate again that back-sql is an *experimental* *unsupported*
backend that has numerous known bugs and is *not* meant to be used as a
fully compliant LDAP backend. It is a bridge, and many features that work
with compliant backends do not work with it. Trying to force LDAP
functionality with back-sql is going to work well as a path to pursue. In
addition, all development of this backend has ceased and no one has
volunteered to continue improving/developing it. It's primary purpose at
the moment generally revolves around being able to return SQL data via the
LDAP protocol. It is *not* to provide LDAP like functionality with SQL as
the backend.
